Welcome to the 2025 Fox Cities Festival of Lights!
Come experience the magic of the season at the Fox Cities Festival of Lights, located at Darboy Community Park (N9334 Noe Rd, Appleton, WI). This beautiful lighted walking display features a scenic trail just over half a mile long, with one section winding through the woods on woodchips, and the other on a paved path. The trail forms a complete loop, so no matter where you start, you’ll end up at the same spot.
After strolling through thousands of lights, come visit Santa in Santa’s Workshop, 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm through December 21. Take family pictures with Santa (there’s no fee) and tell him your Christmas wishes. Hot beverages and delicious cookies will be available for purchase for you to enjoy.
Event will be open 5:00 pm – 9:00 pm nightly (weather permitting)
